Cheap Flights to Arbon from HK$432

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Arbon could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

It's all about being organized. We've compiled some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Arbon, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
