Cheap Flights to Veneta from HK$4,226

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Veneta.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Veneta in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
