Cheap Flights to Denmark from HK$5,404

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Denmark could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Denmark, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
