If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Settimo Torinese. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've pulled together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Settimo Torinese, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical 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 extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
