Flights to Haibach, Bavaria from NT$10,449

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Haibach vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and don't forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Haibach in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
