We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and exploring Oimbra in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a proper 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 air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Oimbra, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
