Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Eclepens could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Eclepens a breeze. Here are some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
