Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Monte Porzio Catone vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Monte Porzio Catone in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
