Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Tola could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be the goal when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Slightly roomy, flat shoes work well.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Tola before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
