Cheap Flights to Lippstadt from HK$2,892

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Lippstadt.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lippstadt in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
