Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Gorham could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Gorham a pleasure. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. 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 keep it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
