Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Lawford could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Lawford a piece of cake. We've compiled some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually 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.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
