We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering Charlwood before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your trip to Charlwood quick and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger 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 luggage.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
