• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get cold. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Yoron, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
