We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Bowness-on-Windermere before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a pullover in case you get cold. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks may also help.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Bowness-on-Windermere easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
