No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Tanner escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Tanner quick and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass close by. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often 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, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
