If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your vacation in San Jose Peten.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your trip to San Jose Peten a breeze. Below you'll find some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
