If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Bohinj. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Bohinj, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
