No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Musquodoboit Harbour vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Wear compression socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Musquodoboit Harbour easy and painless. We've compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• 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 heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
