Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Newington could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a cozy 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:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and pack a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is --- be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Newington, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
