Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Abeokuta could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We’ve rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

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 sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm 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 possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks is also recommended.

The answer is — be prepared. We’ve compiled some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Abeokuta, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
