If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Alasehir.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Alasehir, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
