We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering Mount Storm in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Mount Storm in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers 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 additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
