Cheap Flights to Steinach from HK$487

If you're not prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Steinach.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Steinach a breeze. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
