If you’re poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Sigchos.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It’s simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Sigchos a piece of cake. Here are some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
