Cheap Flights to Landgraff from HK$889

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a trouble-free start to your holiday in Landgraff. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs 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 knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Landgraff before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? 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're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• 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.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
