• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get cold. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Piang Luang a breeze. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
