Cheap Flights to Segovia from HK$841

If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a comfortable start to your getaway in Segovia.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Segovia in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
