We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in San Pièr dʼIsonzo in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to San Pièr dʼIsonzo quick and painless. Below are some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
