Cheap Flights to Ordizia from HK$1,290

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Ordizia holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Ordizia, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
