We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Mitwitz before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Look out Mitwitz, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
