We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Pirangut before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

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 nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pirangut in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
