Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Fergusons Cove escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Fergusons Cove in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Have your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
