Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Belle Haven could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Belle Haven a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
