Cheap Flights to Baumgarten from HK$456

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Baumgarten could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Baumgarten, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. 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 tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
