We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Cachoeirinha in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, 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 priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Cachoeirinha in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, 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.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
