If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Melle.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Melle a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
