If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your vacation in Gosforth.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Gosforth before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
