Cheap Flights to Santa Maria de Cayon from HK$634

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Santa Maria de Cayon holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Santa Maria de Cayon easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
