If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in San Pedro Totoltepec. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out San Pedro Totoltepec, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
