What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

The trick is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Gulf View in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off 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 baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
