We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and exploring Laruns before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Laruns, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
