Cheap Flights to Hinterstoder from HK$4,006

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Hinterstoder escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Hinterstoder in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
