We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through the airport and seeing the best of Kettering before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Kettering easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
