Do you have any tips for my flight to Dresden?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Dresden holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, 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:
  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Dresden?
It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Dresden, here you come:
  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
