Cheap Flights to Toluca from HK$489

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Toluca could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Toluca, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
