We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Romulus in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Romulus before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
