Flights to Ole, Hiiu from

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Ole vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Ole, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things 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 gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
