We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Nedrow before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Nedrow in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must 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 going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
