Cheap Flights to Noordwelle from HK$348

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

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained 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 lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Noordwelle, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
