Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Kato Simi vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Kato Simi easy and painless. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
