Cheap Flights to Bad Kissingen from HK$666

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Bad Kissingen holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Bad Kissingen quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take 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.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
