If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Canonbie.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your main priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Canonbie a pleasure. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Have your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, 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.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
