We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Colbert in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Colbert a pleasure. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often 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 in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
