We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering Colle Umberto in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and wear flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Colle Umberto in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Have your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
