Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to West Bank Demerara could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to West Bank Demerara in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, 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. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
