If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Porto de Espasante.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

The secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Porto de Espasante in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
