Flights to Cicignano, Collevecchio from NT$7,915

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Cicignano could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, 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 ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to Cicignano easy and painless. We've rounded up some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine is up 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 heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
