Flights to Urbar, Rhineland-Palatinate from NT$3,996

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Urbar could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Urbar a pleasure. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
