What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be the goal when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a smart option.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being organised before your flight will make your getaway to Carrollton easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• Have your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• 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 on board and will be confiscated.
