Cheap Flights to Ostbirk

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Ostbirk escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget 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 liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ostbirk in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, 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 before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
