If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your vacation in White Pine.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a pullover just in case you get chilly. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to White Pine quick and painless. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
