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

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Cambalache a breeze. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal 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.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
