Cheap Flights to Bad Colberg-Heldburg from HK$1,101

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Bad Colberg-Heldburg holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organised before your flight will make your getaway to Bad Colberg-Heldburg a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
