Cheap Flights to Blankenheim from HK$553

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy tips that will help get your Blankenheim escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, 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 your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Blankenheim easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
