Cheap Flights to Sankt Lorenz from HK$309

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Sankt Lorenz could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to Sankt Lorenz a pleasure. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
