If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pain-free start to your vacation in Bøur. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Bøur, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
