Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your São Martinho escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The secret is to be well organised before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to São Martinho in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
