Cheap Flights to Nowa Ruda from HK$172

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Nowa Ruda escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always go with flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Nowa Ruda a breeze. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
