Flights to Nordstrand, Schleswig-Holstein from NT$24,265

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Nordstrand in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Nordstrand a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
