Cheap Flights to Ritzing from HK$601

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Ritzing. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Ritzing, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often 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 in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
