• Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Franklin, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
