Cheap Flights to Alt Madlitz from HK$422

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Alt Madlitz could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Alt Madlitz, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, 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 be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
