We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a blast in Qualicum Bay in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The trick is to be well organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Qualicum Bay in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
