We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Garbsen in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Garbsen before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
