Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Sitzenberg-Reidling vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to minimize your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Sitzenberg-Reidling in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Have your passport and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
