Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Dudley vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Dudley, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
