We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Farmer's Hill in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The trick is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Farmer's Hill in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger 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 asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
