We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Blue Bay before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave 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) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Blue Bay before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag 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, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
