Cheap Flights to Sutz-Lattrigen from HK$1,475

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Sutz-Lattrigen holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Sutz-Lattrigen in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
