We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Torres Vedras before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Torres Vedras quick and painless. Below are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
