We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Sfakera in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sfakera in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
