Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Vastra Frolunda could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids 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. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Vastra Frolunda in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
