• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Alcade Diaz, here you come:

• Have your travel documents and passport close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
