Flights to Pieris, San Canzian d'Isonzo from

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pieris could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality 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 try out some exercises in your seat.

It's easy --- be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Pieris, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and passport close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
