We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering McGrath in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple --- be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out McGrath, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must 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 belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
