• Flying can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Planaltina in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
