Flights to Dietenhofen, Bavaria from NT$8,238

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy tips that will get your Dietenhofen vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Dietenhofen, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product 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.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
