No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Cernusco sul Naviglio vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and take a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks can also help.

It's all about being organized. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Cernusco sul Naviglio, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, 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), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• 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.
