Cheap Flights to Lignano Riviera from HK$3,157

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Lignano Riviera escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Lignano Riviera a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
