Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Mountain City could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Mountain City in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Have your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
