Cheap Flights to Luedenscheid from HK$376

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your Luedenscheid vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

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 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and pack a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Luedenscheid in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
