Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy hints that will help get your Al Amarat escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Al Amarat quick and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Travelling with your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
