We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Castagnola in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to Castagnola a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
