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

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to Gadong quick and painless. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
