We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Alessandria before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be the goal when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks can also help.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Alessandria before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
