Cheap Flights to Ebershardt from HK$3,582

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Ebershardt could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organised. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Ebershardt, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
