Cheap Flights to Rijswijk from HK$405

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will get your Rijswijk escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Rijswijk a breeze. We've compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
