Cheap Flights to Otwock from HK$742

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your getaway in Otwock.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

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 avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear compression socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Otwock a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
