We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Beatenberg in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Beatenberg, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
