We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Algaida in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Algaida in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product 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-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
