Cheap Flights to Bad Mergentheim from HK$463

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bad Mergentheim could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Bad Mergentheim quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must 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. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
