Cheap Flights to Ritsem from HK$690

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Ritsem in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, 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:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Ritsem, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
