Cheap Flights to Putignano from HK$362

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. Check out these handy hints that will get your Putignano vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and don't forget to pack a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Putignano in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• 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). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
