If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your vacation in Olkusz.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Olkusz easy and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
