We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Riquewihr in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Riquewihr, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
