We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Trans in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Trans a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
