We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Ferndale in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Ferndale in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, 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 phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
