Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Bálsoma could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Bálsoma quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
