If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Huertgenwald.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Huertgenwald a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger 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 bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
