Cheap Flights to Schierke from HK$1,921

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Schierke could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Schierke in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
