Cheap Flights to Sobradinho from HK$7,192

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your time in Sobradinho.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for an easy trip through security. Look out Sobradinho, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
