We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Palamós in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Palamós in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
