We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and exploring Carlyle in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Carlyle, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
