No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve planned ahead. We’ve made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Gloria escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to catch a few z’s, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

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 box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also recommended.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Gloria, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? 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.
• There’s a possibility that you’ll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
