We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and exploring Woods Hole in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

Being organized before your flight will help make your trip to Woods Hole quick and painless. Check out our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of 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 on board.
