We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Shumway in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and 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 pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Shumway, here you come:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
