If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Carrillos. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

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

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
