We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering Petah Tikva in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, 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:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Petah Tikva in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
