Flights to Odensachsen, Haunetal from NT$17,410

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Odensachsen.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pack a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Odensachsen in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
