We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and exploring Nagercoil in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs 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 sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a wise idea.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Nagercoil, here you come:

• Have your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic devices 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.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? 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 can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
