Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Torrette escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Torrette a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
