Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. Follow these handy tips that will get your Goodview vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Goodview, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. 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 speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
