Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kaibala could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kaibala in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Have your travel documents and ID close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items 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 have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety 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, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
