Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Loreto could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about 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 tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Loreto easy and painless. Below are some handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
