Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Bordhoy could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Bordhoy, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don’t forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
