If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a pain-free start to your getaway in Castelo de Penalva. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Castelo de Penalva, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
