Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Madisonville could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Madisonville, here you come:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
