Cheap Flights to Las Glorias from HK$6,209

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a comfortable start to your vacation in Las Glorias.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Las Glorias in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. 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.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with a new perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
