Cheap Flights to Jesús from HK$1,378

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Jesús escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Jesús a breeze. Below are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
