We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and exploring Buckeye Lake in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Buckeye Lake in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't 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.
