We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a blast in Paraiso Do Tocantins in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, 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 feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Paraiso Do Tocantins before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
