Cheap Flights to Castellote from HK$302

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your holiday in Castellote. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Castellote a pleasure. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
