If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a worry-free start to your getaway in Dunleer.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Dunleer in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids 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 single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
