Flights to Remptendorf, Thuringia from NT$8,530

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Remptendorf escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Remptendorf a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
