• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Uedem, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
