We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring Deer Park in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

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 liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.

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 remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Deer Park, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
