Cheap Flights to Casalgrande from HK$811

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Casalgrande could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Casalgrande, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• 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 in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, 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 pack them in your checked bags.
