Flights to Blindendorf, Ried in der Riedmark from

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a pleasant start to your getaway in Blindendorf.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Blindendorf a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
