Cheap Flights to Flawil from HK$484

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Flawil could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to take on and off.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Flawil a piece of cake. We've compiled some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
