No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will get your Lakeville vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, 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 aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Lakeville quick and painless. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
