We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and exploring Padangsambian in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring 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 airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Padangsambian in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
