Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your El Viso del Alcor escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out El Viso del Alcor, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
