Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cufre could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Cufre a pleasure. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling 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 set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
