Flights to Campiglia, La Spezia from NT$30,726

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Campiglia in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Campiglia, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, 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.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
