Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Chișinău escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Chișinău quick and painless. We've compiled some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
