Cheap Flights to Pottenstein from HK$971

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and exploring Pottenstein in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Pottenstein easy and painless. Below you'll find some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
