We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in Knoxville in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be the goal when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

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

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• 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 such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
