If you're not prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Bonsin. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Bonsin a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
