Flights to Lazzaro, Motta San Giovanni from

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Lazzaro could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Lazzaro quick and painless. Below are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is 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 in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
