Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Abaca Village vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Abaca Village a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
