Cheap Flights to Wieliczka from HK$490

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Wieliczka before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Wieliczka a pleasure. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
