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

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a pullover in case you get cold. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Uxbridge before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
