Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Sidi Ifni could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Sidi Ifni, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
