Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Americo de Campos could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Americo de Campos in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
