If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your vacation in Great Camanoe Island.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Great Camanoe Island a pleasure. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
