We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Budoni before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps 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:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Budoni before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
