Flights to Renningen, Stuttgart from NT$24,151

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Renningen could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Renningen in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Have your ID and travel documents close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
