Flights to Sgurgola, Lazio from

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a pain-free start to your vacation in Sgurgola. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Sgurgola quick and painless. Check out our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
