Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Aspy Bay could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Aspy Bay in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Have your travel documents and ID at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
