Cheap Flights to Fontanellato

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Fontanellato escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Fontanellato, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
