No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Franklin Furnace vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Franklin Furnace in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• 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 your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
