We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Four Corners before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Four Corners, here you come:

• Keep your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Travelling with a new cologne or 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-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
