We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Bansko in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in breathable clothing and bring a sweater in case you get cold. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Bansko, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
