Cheap Flights to Serra-di-Ferro from HK$7,029

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your vacation in Serra-di-Ferro.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Serra-di-Ferro, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• 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 set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
