• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lake View before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
