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

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Olafsfjordur, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually 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 inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
