If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in San Donato Val Di Comino.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to San Donato Val Di Comino a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in 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 passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
