No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Follow these handy travel tips that will help get your Kingori vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Kingori a pleasure. We've compiled some useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? Not a problem. 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 on board.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
