Cheap Flights to Olivo from HK$155

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Olivo escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

The secret is to be well organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Olivo in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Have your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
