We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring Westward in no time flat.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Westward in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
