We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a blast in Belmont in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Belmont before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
