We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Salto in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

The trick is to be organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Salto in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
