Cheap Flights to Valle Dell'Erica from HK$472

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Valle Dell'Erica escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before your flight can make your trip to Valle Dell'Erica quick and painless. We've compiled some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
