Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Branch could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your luggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Branch, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
