Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Aguas Nuevas could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Aguas Nuevas easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
