Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Podkowa Lesna could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Podkowa Lesna a breeze. Here are some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
