Flights to Hörnum, Schleswig-Holstein from NT$29,668

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Hörnum escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Hörnum, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
