If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a worry-free start to your vacation in Nova Alvorada do Sul. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember 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 luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged 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 promote better circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Nova Alvorada do Sul before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• 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). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
