We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in San Miguel Petapa in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy --- first, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out San Miguel Petapa, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, 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 phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
