Cheap Flights to Tallassee from HK$6,939

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Tallassee could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and take a cardigan just in case you get cold. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Tallassee in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
