If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your vacation in Mirfield.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Mirfield in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
