Cheap Flights to Capas from HK$271

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

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Capas, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
