We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Liepupe in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Liepupe before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
