No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Oldenburg in Holstein escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

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 avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• 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 inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

It's all about being organized. We've compiled some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Oldenburg in Holstein, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
