• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be the goal when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Peraia easy and painless. Below you’ll find some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
