If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your getaway in Montenero di Bisaccia. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Montenero di Bisaccia, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
