Cheap Flights to Neuenkirch from HK$352

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a worry-free start to your getaway in Neuenkirch.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Neuenkirch quick and painless. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
