Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Winterton holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you’ll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Winterton a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID close by. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It’s also possible you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
