Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Lap Vo could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Lap Vo, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new cologne? As long as it's in a container 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 in your carry-on.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
