Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Posio could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Posio, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
