Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cabras could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of prolonged 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 drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Cabras in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
