Flights to Hjerkinn, Dovre from

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Hjerkinn escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane 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 book. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Hjerkinn a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
