Cheap Flights to Zinnowitz from HK$3,778

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Zinnowitz holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

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

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
