Flights to Stemmen, Lower Saxony from NT$25,627

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Stemmen could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good read. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and take a sweater just in case you get chilly. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Stemmen in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
