Cheap Flights to Corralillo from HK$1,165

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Corralillo. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Corralillo before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• 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 suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
