We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and discovering Dasmarinas before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Dasmarinas before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
