Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Immerath could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Immerath a breeze. Here are some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
