Cheap Flights to Arapiraca from HK$2,004

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Arapiraca holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being organised before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Arapiraca quick and painless. Read through our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
