Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Kirchheimbolanden escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Kirchheimbolanden, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
