We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Susono in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Susono in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Have your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
