We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Meadville in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

The trick is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Meadville in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
