If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Questembert.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel 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 answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Questembert quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style 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 or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
