If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a pain-free start to your vacation in Segovia.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, 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:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've pulled together some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Segovia, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
