Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Amvrakia could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Amvrakia, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
