We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Hamilton before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Hamilton easy and painless. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
