We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Nong Khai in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. First of all you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Nong Khai a pleasure. We’ve rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
