Cheap Flights to Sélestat from HK$501

If you're not prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Selestat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Selestat, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
