We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Etchingham in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Etchingham a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
