Cheap Flights to Prazeres from HK$488

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Prazeres could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Prazeres in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
