Cheap Flights to Tapalpa from HK$950

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Tapalpa in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Tapalpa in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. 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-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
