Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Sant'Antimo vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Sant'Antimo quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
