Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to San Jose Peten could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to San Jose Peten a piece of cake. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
