• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Hounslow, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product 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 possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, 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 in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
