We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Meisenthal before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Meisenthal, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. 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 devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
