Cheap Flights to Dol from CA $71

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Dol could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Dol easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
