Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Ayzieu escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also banned.

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, roomy and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ayzieu before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
