No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Cerkezkoy vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable 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:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Cerkezkoy in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, 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 like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers 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 good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
