Cheap Flights to Bad Kreuznach from HK$996

If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your time in Bad Kreuznach. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Bad Kreuznach, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
