If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Penarroya de Tastavins.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Penarroya de Tastavins a pleasure. Read through our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
