Cheap Flights to Tortosa from HK$319

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Tortosa vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and take a sweater just in case you get chilly. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Tortosa quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. 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 easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
