We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Punta Alta in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Punta Alta a breeze. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
