Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cardena could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

It's easy --- be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Cardena, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
