We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Sambuca Pistoiese in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sambuca Pistoiese in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring 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), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
