Cheap Flights to Roskilde from HK$389

If you're not prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Roskilde. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being organised. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Roskilde, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
