If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your vacation in Klaffer am Hochficht.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some 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 prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Klaffer am Hochficht, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
