Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Shasta Lake could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

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 screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Shasta Lake in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
