• It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Rampart in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is 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.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
