We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Karamu in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Karamu a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
