We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Readstown in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being organised before your flight can make your trip to Readstown a pleasure. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
