Cheap Flights to Settimo Torinese from HK$689

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Settimo Torinese escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be the goal when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
• A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Settimo Torinese in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Traveling with your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
