No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Pianello del Lario escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Pianello del Lario, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
