Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Nairyah could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Nairyah, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
