Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Baj could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be the goal when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Baj, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• 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.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
