We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Van Vleck in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Van Vleck in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Have your travel documents and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
