Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Trenton could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Trenton, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
