We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering La Vall de Boi in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to La Vall de Boi a pleasure. Here are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
