Cheap Flights to Vodice from HK$757

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Vodice could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Vodice in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
