We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and enjoying Paraiso in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Paraiso in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
