Cheap Flights to Heimerzheim from HK$456

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Heimerzheim before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Heimerzheim a breeze. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
