Cheap Flights to Ploermel from HK$583

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ploermel could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Ploermel a breeze. Below you'll find some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
