• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack 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 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's all about being organized. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Hillsborough, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
