Cheap Flights to Solferino from HK$1,112

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Solferino escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The answer is — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Solferino, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product 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.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
