• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Tárcoles, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
