We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a ball in Southard in 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 need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The trick is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Southard in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
