We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Paducah in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Paducah a breeze. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
