We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Bamburgh in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get chilly. Always go with flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Bamburgh in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
