Flights to Niesky, Saxony from NT$6,735

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your time in Niesky.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Niesky in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne? No 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, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
