If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your vacation in Fregenal de la Sierra.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Fregenal de la Sierra in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items 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 electronics, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually 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 single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
