Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Crane Hill vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Crane Hill easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
