Cheap Flights to Kapetanianá from HK$409

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in Kapetanianá in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kapetanianá in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
