Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to New Mirpur City could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out New Mirpur City, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
