We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Ipoh before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some useful tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Ipoh, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
