Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Tuglie could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Tuglie in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? 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 OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
