Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your River Falls vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be the goal when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks may also help.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out River Falls, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• 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.
