We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Tiefencastel in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy --- first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is --- be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Tiefencastel, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
