Cheap Flights to Ischgl from HK$1,290

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Ischgl escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ischgl in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
