Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Marina di Caulonia could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Marina di Caulonia a pleasure. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
