Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Herlikofen could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Herlikofen a pleasure. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
