Cheap Flights to Marxheim from HK$672

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Marxheim escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Marxheim in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Have your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
