Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Ribera del Fresno vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Ribera del Fresno before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
