If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Colton.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Colton, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
