• A plane trip can be easy if you take the right gear. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, 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 not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Blonie a piece of cake. Here are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
