We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Tả Giàng Phình in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The secret is to be well organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Tả Giàng Phình in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
