We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and enjoying Rioz in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, 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 the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Rioz in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray 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-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
