Cheap Flights to Stobrec from HK$195

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Stobrec holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Stobrec easy and painless. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels 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 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
