We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring Santa Rosa in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

The answer is — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Santa Rosa, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in 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.
