Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Mersch could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and wear closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
• 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. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Mersch, here you come:

• Have your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close 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 wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
