Cheap Flights to Branco from HK$847

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Branco could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be easy if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Branco, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
