Cheap Flights to Lofsdalen from HK$6,932

If you're not prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Lofsdalen. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming 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 arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Lofsdalen a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
