Flights to Lando, South Carolina from

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Lando.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Lando in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• 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 clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
