Cheap Flights to Radmühl from HK$2,338

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Radmühl. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Radmühl a pleasure. We've compiled some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Keep your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
