Cheap Flights to Los Frailes from HK$2,506

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Los Frailes could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Los Frailes a breeze. Here are some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything 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.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
