• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Nardò a breeze. Read through our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
