Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Dewitt vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets cool. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Dewitt, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
