Cheap Flights to Pontevico from HK$629

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Pontevico could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Pontevico a breeze. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
