Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Scurcola Marsicana could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Scurcola Marsicana in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
