We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Wettswil before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, 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 comfy clothing and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• You've probably heard about 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 or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Wettswil in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
