No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these handy tips that will help get your Little Rapids vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Little Rapids easy and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
