• First, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Gulf Stream, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
