We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Bullion in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

The trick is to be well organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Bullion in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
