• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a few magazines. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We’ve put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Tonsberg, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Can’t travel without your favorite cologne? No 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, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
