Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bakurtsikhe could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get chilly. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The trick is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Bakurtsikhe in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
