If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Bambadjani. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organized before your flight will help make your getaway to Bambadjani a breeze. Below you'll find some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
