Cheap Flights to Tschiertschen from HK$473

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Tschiertschen could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape 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 essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Tschiertschen, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
