We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying Killam in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Killam, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
