Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kettering could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to Kettering a piece of cake. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
