What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out La Monte, here you come:

• Have your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
