Cheap Flights to Schomberg from HK$709

If you're not prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your holiday in Schomberg. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Schomberg in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
