Cheap Flights to Neunkirchen from HK$601

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Neunkirchen. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Neunkirchen in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
