Cheap Flights to Bad Windsheim from HK$2,690

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Bad Windsheim. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

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 zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Bad Windsheim easy and painless. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
