Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Los Cardales escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Los Cardales easy and painless. Below are some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
