We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Gallatin in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Gallatin, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
