Flights to Tarsus, Mersin Province from

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Tarsus could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Tarsus, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
