Cheap Flights to San Vicente from HK$301

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips that will help get your San Vicente holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out San Vicente, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
