If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a comfortable start to your vacation in Conway Beach.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Conway Beach in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Keep your passport and travel documents at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater 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 luggage.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
