Cheap Flights to Hellevoetsluis from HK$457

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Hellevoetsluis vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Hellevoetsluis a breeze. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
