We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Santa Cruz de Flores in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Santa Cruz de Flores in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by 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 as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
