No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Julago vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop 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, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your trip to Julago a breeze. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
