If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your vacation in Saryagash. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Saryagash in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go 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 also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring 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.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
