If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Northfleet. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Northfleet, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
