Flights to Petrovskoye, Tambov Oblast from

If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your time in Petrovskoye.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Petrovskoye, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
