Cheap Flights to Stralsund from HK$1,372

If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your getaway in Stralsund.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Stralsund a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
