We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying Sinarades before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume 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. Wear layers and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Sinarades, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
