• First, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

The answer is simple — be organized. We’ve put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Banting, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It’s also possible you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
