We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and exploring New Iberia in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to New Iberia in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
