If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your vacation in Fuente del Ciervo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Fuente del Ciervo quick and painless. Check out our useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
