We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Pluma Hidalgo in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Pluma Hidalgo in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking 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 seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
