Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Gossersweiler-Stein could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

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. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Gossersweiler-Stein, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
