We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying South Durras in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to South Durras in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
