Cheap Flights to Guardamiglio from HK$356

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Guardamiglio could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and don't forget to pack a pullover in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Guardamiglio a breeze. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
