Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Higdon could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change 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 avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Higdon, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
