Cheap Flights to El Chorro from HK$907

If you're not prepared, travelling can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your holiday in El Chorro. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to El Chorro in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
