We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of West Beckham in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to West Beckham a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
