If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your time in Fairplay.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple --- be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Fairplay, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
