Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Tataouine Nord escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Tataouine Nord a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. 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.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
