Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kettleburgh could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks can also help.

The trick is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kettleburgh in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
