If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Bad Rippoldsau-Schapbach.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Bad Rippoldsau-Schapbach a pleasure. Read through our handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
