We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Meeker in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Meeker, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• 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 in your checked luggage.
