Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cumberland Center could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Cumberland Center in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
