Cheap Flights to Petermann from HK$1,143

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Petermann.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

The trick is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Petermann in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
