Cheap Flights to Wittenburg from HK$3,071

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Wittenburg escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Wittenburg before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
