Cheap Flights to Wernberg-Koeblitz from HK$1,248

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Wernberg-Koeblitz could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Wernberg-Koeblitz, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
