Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to La Cáscara could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and take a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to La Cáscara quick and painless. Read through our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
