Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Oak Harbour could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The trick is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Oak Harbour in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
