Cheap Flights to Uitgeest from HK$3,232

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your holiday in Uitgeest. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Uitgeest easy and painless. Read through our useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
