Cheap Flights to Lagoa from HK$416

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Lagoa in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Lagoa, here you come:

• Keep your passport and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and headphones 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 electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item 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.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
