We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Valley Ford in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

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 zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Valley Ford in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
