Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Pavia di Udine escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Pavia di Udine a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
