If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Barmen.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and take a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your luggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Barmen, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. 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.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
