We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering Bath in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Bath, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• 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 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-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
