Cheap Flights to Buttenheim from HK$480

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Buttenheim. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Buttenheim in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
