We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Samara before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

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 avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've rounded up some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Samara, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, 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, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
