Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Tsevie could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Tsevie in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
