We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of La Coruna in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks can also help.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to La Coruna in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
