Flights to Saulheim, Rhineland-Palatinate from NT$20,547

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Saulheim escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Saulheim, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
