Flights to Bauen, Seedorf from NT$5,476

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through the airport and seeing the best of Bauen before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Bauen a pleasure. Read through our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
