Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips that will get your Swakopmund Center vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Swakopmund Center, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
