Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Achacachi could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Achacachi a pleasure. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
