Flights to Boden, Pfafflar from

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy hints that will help get your Boden escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and pack a sweater in case you get cold. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Boden a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
