Cheap Flights to Sittensen from HK$755

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Sittensen holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more 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 your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Sittensen a pleasure. Below are some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
