If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Jezera.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Jezera, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
