No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Kampung Sungai Rusa vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit 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 baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Kampung Sungai Rusa easy and painless. We've rounded up some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
