We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Lequile before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Lequile in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater 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 minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
