Flights to Grevenstein, Meschede from NT$35,089

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Grevenstein. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Grevenstein a breeze. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take 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), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
