We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering Juan Fernández in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Juan Fernández quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
