Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Diamond City could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set 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 to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Diamond City, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
