We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Sonsbeck in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Sonsbeck in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things 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, must also be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
