We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Memba in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Memba a piece of cake. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Have your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
