We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying Mekarsari in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on 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:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Mekarsari, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
