We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying Blue River before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Blue River quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
