We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Battle Ground in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat 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. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Battle Ground a breeze. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
