• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Bad Soden am Taunus in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
