If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a comfortable start to your vacation in Akapnou.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The answer is --- be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Akapnou, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume 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-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
