Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will help get your Elavur vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Elavur easy and painless. We've compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
