No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips that will get your Loperec escape started on the right foot. 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, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. 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:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Loperec easy and painless. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight 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, put them in your checked baggage.
