If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Castel Di Tusa.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Castel Di Tusa easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
