Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Rosal de la Frontera vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Rosal de la Frontera in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
