Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sissonne could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sissonne before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
