Flights to El Viejo, Chinandega Department from NT$28,063

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your El Viejo vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to El Viejo a pleasure. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite 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-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
