Cheap Flights to Lutz from HK$1,873

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Lutz escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and bring a cardigan just in case you get cold. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Lutz a pleasure. Below are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, 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 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
