Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Lauret could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance 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 socks.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lauret in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
