Cheap Flights to Guerneville from HK$2,752

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Guerneville escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The trick is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Guerneville in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, 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, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
