Cheap Flights to Casti-Wergenstein from HK$962

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a worry-free start to your getaway in Casti-Wergenstein.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Casti-Wergenstein, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
