No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Langue vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Langue, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go 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 need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
