• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a few magazines. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don’t forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your main priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Yosemite Village, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
• Can’t travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
