We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Moya before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget 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 can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and pack a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Moya in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
