Cheap Flights to Egloffstein from HK$1,430

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Egloffstein.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Egloffstein in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
