Flights to Kluis, Mecklenburg-West Pomerania from NT$23,567

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kluis could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are your best bet.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Kluis quick and painless. Below are some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Have your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
