Cheap Flights to Castelnuovo Magra from HK$773

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Castelnuovo Magra could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being organised. We've put together some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Castelnuovo Magra, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
