Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ambikanagar could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Ambikanagar, here you come:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. 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.
