No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Anse La Raye vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Anse La Raye easy and painless. Read through our handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
