Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Esbjerg could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Esbjerg a breeze. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
