We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Waterloo in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers 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 to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Waterloo, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
