We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Lake Helen in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, 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:

• Comfort really should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Lake Helen quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
