Cheap Flights to Palmilla from HK$2,736

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Palmilla could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and pack a jacket just in case you get chilly. Always opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Palmilla easy and painless. Read through our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
