If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a stress-free start to your vacation in Simonsbath.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and pack a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Simonsbath, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product 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.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
