Cheap Flights to Split from HK$411

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Split vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are your best bet.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks is also recommended.

Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to Split a piece of cake. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms 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 the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
