We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Diriá in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Diriá a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
