• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Maple Glen, here you come:

• Keep your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, 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.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
