We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering Arihara in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Arihara, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of 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 on board.
