Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kerteh could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Kerteh a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
