We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Port Barre before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Port Barre, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
