Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Starkey could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, 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 really should be your priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Starkey, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
