• It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Purcell, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
