If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Buddireddipatti.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Buddireddipatti a piece of cake. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
