We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering West Linn before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your prime concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression socks may also help.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out West Linn, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
