Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Xakanaxa could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organized before your flight will help make your trip to Xakanaxa a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
