Cheap Flights to Burchio from HK$3,690

If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your getaway in Burchio. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart 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, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Burchio, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
