Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Han Lam could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Han Lam easy and painless. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
