Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Lensahn could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Lensahn quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
