We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a blast in Osada in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get cold. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Osada in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. 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 need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
