• Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged 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 improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Wombat in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Have your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers 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 often subjected to extra screening.
• 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.
