Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Lincoln Heights could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Lincoln Heights easy and painless. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at 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 set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
