No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Elbridge vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Elbridge a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
