We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Raymore in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Raymore in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Keep your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
