Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Rohr vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Rohr, here you come:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, 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.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
