• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and pack a sweater just in case you get cold. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for an easy trip through security. Look out Gladstone, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
