Flights to Zompicchia, Codroipo from NT$8,723

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a stress-free start to your getaway in Zompicchia.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Zompicchia in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Have your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
