Cheap Flights to Axel from HK$410

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Axel vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Axel easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
