Flights to Lunz am See, Lower Austria from NT$8,166

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Lunz am See escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The trick is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Lunz am See in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
