Flights to Bluno, Elsterheide from NT$5,131

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Bluno escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Bluno, here you come:

• Have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
