Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Nukumi could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Nukumi, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
