Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Uschlag escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your trip to Uschlag easy and painless. We've compiled some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Have your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
