We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Hoquiam in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and opt for flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Hoquiam easy and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
