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 tips that will help get your Lira holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.
 
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
 
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
 - The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
