We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in New Egypt in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out New Egypt, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product 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.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
