We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Kiefersfelden in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Kiefersfelden a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
