• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and take a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The trick is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Blackwood in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
