Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Maur escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your main priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Maur a breeze. Read through our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
