We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Calumet Park in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Calumet Park a breeze. Here are some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
