We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Cloppenburg before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Cloppenburg in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Keep your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
