Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Baylham vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Baylham in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
