Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bad Hersfeld could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and bring a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Bad Hersfeld quick and painless. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring 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 need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
