Cheap Flights to Gennep from HK$255

If you're not prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Gennep. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Gennep, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
