We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Burlington before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Burlington a breeze. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
