No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Samaná escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Samaná easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), 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 wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
