We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Ferrol in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

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

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Ferrol a piece of cake. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
