Cheap Flights to Dessel from HK$1,289

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Dessel could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Dessel quick and painless. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
