Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Malhada dos Bois vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

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 suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Malhada dos Bois in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
