• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

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 knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out L'Alfas del Pi, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
