If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your time in Greenfield.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

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 compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Greenfield, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
