We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and enjoying Milesion in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The answer is — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Milesion, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
