We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Newport before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

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 avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Newport quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
