Cheap Flights to San Bernardo from HK$547

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in San Bernardo before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to San Bernardo quick and painless. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, 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 moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
