Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your San Vicente do Grove vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to San Vicente do Grove quick and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
