Cheap Flights to Bad Dueben from HK$3,781

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a comfortable start to your vacation in Bad Dueben.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Bad Dueben, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a 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-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
