• The trick to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

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) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and take a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve put together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Letskiy Reyd, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There’s a good chance you’ll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
