Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Westbury-sub-Mendip could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Westbury-sub-Mendip, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and passport handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
