Cheap Flights to Dionysos from HK$288

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

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

The secret is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Dionysos in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
