We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring Ban Kao in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Ban Kao a pleasure. We've rounded up some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
