Cheap Flights to Sendenhorst from HK$993

If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a hassle-free start to your time in Sendenhorst. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sendenhorst in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Travelling with a new hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
