Cheap Flights to Cerceda from HK$1,476

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Cerceda.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and pack a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Cerceda a breeze. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
