If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your vacation in The Cultural Quarter.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

It's all about being organized. We've pulled together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out The Cultural Quarter, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
