Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pretzfeld could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks may also help.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Pretzfeld a pleasure. We've compiled some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
