Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kulmbach could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be the goal when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Kulmbach, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
