Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kampung Guar Lobak could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Kampung Guar Lobak in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often 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-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
