If you’re poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your vacation in Rivera.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. 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 can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be the goal when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Rivera a breeze. Below are some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
• Knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
