Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Myers Flat escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Myers Flat in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
