Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Xalostoc escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Xalostoc, here you come:

• Have your passport and boarding pass at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
