If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Bradenton.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Bradenton a pleasure. Read through our useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
