We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Schmilau in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Schmilau, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often 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.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
