• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you’ve got all the right gear. First of all you’ll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

It’s all about being organized. We’ve rounded up some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Newark, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Can’t travel without your favorite cologne? 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.
• Slip-on shoes are a good 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 additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
