If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Hingham.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Hingham, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
