• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• It’s likely you’ve heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

It’s all about being organized. We’ve compiled some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Kep, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There’s a good chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
