Cheap Flights to Herbriggen

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will get your Herbriggen holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed 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, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Herbriggen, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
