If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Khlong Chuk Krachoe. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Khlong Chuk Krachoe in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
