We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Comporta in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant 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 air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Comporta in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
