Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Karolinka vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

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 prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being organized before your flight will help make your getaway to Karolinka quick and painless. Below are some useful tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
