Cheap Flights to Kreuth from HK$907

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Kreuth in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The trick is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Kreuth in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
