Flights to Gemmingen, Baden-Württemberg from NT$7,172

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Gemmingen could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Gemmingen in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
