Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Klaserie Nature Reserve could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Klaserie Nature Reserve, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
