We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Chute Lake in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Chute Lake before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
