Cheap Flights to La Adrada from HK$2,089

If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your getaway in La Adrada. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to La Adrada in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
