Cheap Flights to Rignano sull'Arno from HK$969

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Rignano sull'Arno could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organised before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Rignano sull'Arno a pleasure. Below are some handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
