If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Ameca. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ameca in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Keep your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
