Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips that will get your Hamuk vacation started on the right foot.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 a few toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Hamuk, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• 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 soon enough.
• Can't travel without 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-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
