We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of León before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to León in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
