We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Kampung Cantik before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Kampung Cantik, here you come:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
