Flights to Haimbach, Fulda from NT$13,693

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Haimbach vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and bring a pullover in case you get cold. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Haimbach before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
