Cheap Flights to Volkshausen from HK$663

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Volkshausen could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes 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 baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Volkshausen a breeze. Below are some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Have your passport and travel documents at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort 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 as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
