Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Kyleakin escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple --- first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Kyleakin quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
