Cheap Flights to Grottaglie from HK$421

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Grottaglie before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Grottaglie, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
