Flights to Quassel, Lübtheen from NT$21,442

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Quassel escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get cold. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Quassel in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
