Cheap Flights to Flachau from HK$1,130

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Flachau could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Flachau in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
