Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Coti-Chiavari could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Coti-Chiavari in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
