If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Veribest.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and remember to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Veribest, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
