Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Middle Haddam could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and pick closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Middle Haddam, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often 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-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
