No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Averill Park vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Averill Park, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
