Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Alhama de Granada escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Alhama de Granada, here you come:

• Have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
