We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering Duque de Caxias in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a cardigan just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Duque de Caxias in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item 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 a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
