We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Lacey in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your trip to Lacey a breeze. Below are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
