Cheap Flights to Montespertoli from HK$3,444

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Montespertoli. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Montespertoli a pleasure. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
