If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Horcajo de la Sierra. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Horcajo de la Sierra, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
