If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your vacation in Wellingborough.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Wellingborough in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
