Cheap Flights to Kilchberg from HK$789

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Kilchberg escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Kilchberg in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
