Flights to Flesten, Üxheim from NT$23,060

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Flesten before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Flesten quick and painless. Here are some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your ID and travel documents close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
