We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and seeing the best of Aurora in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Aurora a piece of cake. Below are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
