We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Lonsheim in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure 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 no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Lonsheim in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
