Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Qawra escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and take a sweater in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve put together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Qawra, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually 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 in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There’s a possibility that you’ll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
