Flights to Neidenbach, Rhineland-Palatinate from NT$29,691

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Neidenbach. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Neidenbach before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
