Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Livingston Manor could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Livingston Manor, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, 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 belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually 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 single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
