We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and discovering Rübke before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Rübke in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
