Cheap Flights to Quesnel from HK$1,763

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these handy tips that will get your Quesnel escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Quesnel a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
