Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will help get your Netzschkau vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

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 flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Netzschkau before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Have your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
