• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you’ve got all the right stuff. First of all you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It’s all about being organized. We’ve rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Soja, here you come:

• Have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Can’t travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There’s a possibility that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
