If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your vacation in Kampung Jabi Baharu. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Kampung Jabi Baharu a piece of cake. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
