We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Browns Summit in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before your flight will help make your getaway to Browns Summit a piece of cake. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
