Cheap Flights to Vendargues from HK$1,873

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Vendargues holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Vendargues a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
