Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’re well prepared. We’ve put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Wakaura vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. First of all you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Wakaura quick and painless. Below are some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online in no time.
• Don’t forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It’s also possible you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
