If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a pain-free start to your getaway in Remlap.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Remlap in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Have your boarding pass and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
