We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Djibouti in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case you get cold. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Djibouti a breeze. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
