We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Calatafimi in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make 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:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before your flight will help make your getaway to Calatafimi a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
