We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Çan in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The trick is to be well organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Çan in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
