Flights to Tavari, Lesvos from

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your getaway in Tavari. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Tavari, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often 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 great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
