We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring La Lama in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to La Lama in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
