Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bad Bevensen could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Bad Bevensen easy and painless. Below are some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
