If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Rajgir. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Rajgir, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
