Flights to Greding, Bavaria from NT$9,197

If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a hassle-free start to your time in Greding.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural fibers and pack a cardigan just in case you get cold. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks is also recommended.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Greding, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
