Cheap Flights to Boara Pisani from HK$3,157

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a worry-free start to your getaway in Boara Pisani. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Boara Pisani, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
