Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Paraiso escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Paraiso in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There’s a chance you’ll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
