Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ixmiquilpan could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ixmiquilpan in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand 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-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
