Cheap Flights to Timoteo from HK$12,758

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Timoteo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Timoteo, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
