Cheap Flights to Marbach from HK$4,430

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Marbach could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Marbach easy and painless. Check out our handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
