Cheap Flights to Salzburg from HK$327

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring Salzburg in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Salzburg in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
