Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to McKenna could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out McKenna, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
