We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Emek Lod in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

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) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Emek Lod in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
