We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Gossolengo before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Gossolengo, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort 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 easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
