We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and enjoying Pearl City in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pearl City in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
