We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Ban Ya in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Ban Ya in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
