If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a hassle-free start to your vacation in Vermiglio.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and bring a pullover in case it gets cool. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Vermiglio in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. 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.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
