We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and enjoying Albert in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Albert in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
